30 John Lennon Quotes About Life And Lessons To Inspire You

Life Lesson #1: Be Yourself

1. “I’m not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything. I’ve always been a freak. So I’ve been a freak all my life and I have to live with that, you know. I’m one of those people.” – John Lennon

2. “You don’t need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!” – John Lennon

3. “We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.” – John Lennon

4. “Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.” – John Lennon

5. “It matters not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love.” – John Lennon

6. “It doesn’t matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I’m a woman or a man.” – John Lennon

7. “There’s nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be…” – John Lennon

8. “If there’s such a thing as genius — I am one. And if there isn’t, I don’t care.” – John Lennon

Life Lesson #2: Love, Forgive, Enjoy and IMAGINE.

9. “I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now? ” – John Lennon

10. “A mistake is only an error, it becomes a mistake when you fail to correct it.” – John Lennon

11. “If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there’d be peace.” – John Lennon

12. “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” – John Lennon

13. “When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.” – John Lennon

14. “We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practised in broad daylight.” – John Lennon

15. “Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.” – John Lennon

16. “Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will be as one.” – John Lennon

17. “I don’t believe in killing whatever the reason!” – John Lennon

18. “Love is the greatest refreshment in life.” – John Lennon

Life Lesson #3: Accept that You Still Have a Lot to Learn

22. “I can’t wake you up. You can wake you up. I can’t cure you. You can cure you.” – John Lennon

23. “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.” – John Lennon

24. “You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die. Declare it. Just the same way we declare war. That is how we will have peace… we just need to declare it.” – John Lennon

25. “Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it.” – John Lennon

26. “There is an alternative to war. It’s staying in bed and growing your hair.” – John Lennon

27. “Only by trying on other people’s clothes do we find what size we are.” – John Lennon

Life Lesson #4: Always Remember
